Hello,
I have just begun to believe that I could successfully build and fly an airplane. As such, I joined this mail list and have started reading your comments, questions, & concerns. The help you are providing each other seems to be valuable.
In just a few weeks of reading two airplanes will easily fit my need and allow for growth, the RV-10 and Velocity XLRG. Of the two, I favor the RV for its better STOL capabilities and low speed landings. There are benefits to a pusher style drive system (besides a quieter ride), the Velocity is a good looking plane (that has to count for something).
So, my question to you all is, for those who fly a canard style airplane, what were the top reasons you chose this style of aircraft to build and fly?
Thank you;

Some of us couldn't make up our minds. We cut to the chase and just went with one big wing in the middle. Being ambivalent about the construction method also, we decide to do tube'n'rag AND composite work. No point in limiting yourself.
